well since i just read thru all the posts i am going to tell you my latest BAD dealings with frank.back in july i saw frank had some deals on radiators and i ordered 2. they showed up with no problems. scott griffen started on a 69 camaro for me. i was talking to frank and he said let me take care of everything you need and assured me that he had his act together and could take care of it quick. i wired him 36,000 and told him i needed all the DSE parts first and everything for the chassis shop to get my car rolling.he said he ordered the parts the day i wired the money.2 weeks later i had not received anything and talked to DSE and said he had never placed the order. i knew i was in trouble right then.after a few calls my DSE parts started showing up.after going over the order 5 times. i could not believe someone could get so many things wrong.i also ordered Baer brake system with floater rear end.i talked to matt at moser in mid august and asked about the rear.he said there was no order for it yet. i told frank just send me the rear housing with the baer floater and DSE brackets installed i would wait on the axles and 3rd member later. he said the send out the rearend complete.3 months later the the rear shows up all unassembled and the wrong gear ratio. i went over the gear ratio 3 different times with frank and 2 times with matt at moser but didn't seem to do any good.in the meantime i had to buy a different rear end housing and a floater setup from GMR. then my calipers showed up and they were the wrong color. the guy at baer said send them back and he would exchange them. i sent them back and someone from UPS stole them before they arrived.what a nightmare,been shipping boxes for 30 years and never had a problem.the guy at baer took alot of time finding this package.i had sent it back in their original box with the Fedex label on the inside. i guess there was a lot of heat over this package that someone reversed the labels and gave it to fedex and it shipped back to me a month later. the man at baer figured this out. finally a happy ending on that story. there are 10 other things that i ordered and i had to call,e-mail and keep track of everything myself. i still don't have everything. if this is what you have to do to save some money i rather pay list price for everything and have it sitting in my garage.
i wish some of these large companies did not have a middle man and would sell at a fair price to all.i have been in the transmission business for 30 years and i don't have any middle men and i deal with over 150 shops and customers right off the street and it has worked for me.
people need to watch out for frank, he is not out to help you at all.
